out of stock but maybe worth a phone call

I've messaged those sellers in the hope of working out cheaper shipping, so thank you for linking looking

The last set of 3 is lovely, I really wish they were in stock. I'll give them a call tomorrow, as they would make a lovely gift. Smile

No luck on the Zulily one, apparently they can't say what they'll have in the future. Confused

this is the trade site for Grasslands Road who supply the Zulily set, maybe be a pitiful email to them asking where else they are stocked - they have Europe listed in contact details

Thank you looking they don't seem to have the Buri brush decorations for sale on the Europe website but an email costs nothing so here's hoping. Grin

Hopefully my search might now be over thanks to a very lovely mumsnetter. I promise to update with the outcome.

This story is better than the nativity, it has friends, elephants, far off places and custard powder. Grin

I was in Poundland on Wednesday and they had loads of animal decorations, I only remember because I thought it was strange. I can't remember if there was an elephant though, sorry.

Oh great, I was going to suggest Tradcraft or similar shops. Must be a special present. My daughter has just been to the Elephant centre in Thailand.🤫

IceRebel · 14/11/2018 08:52

It's a present for a very special relative. I bet your daughter loved the elephant centre. I would love to send this relative to Thailand but that's a bit outside my budget Grin

Yay! Love a happy ending at Christmas.

IceRebel · 14/11/2018 18:58

Not quite a happy ending yet, he's still being transported (sending elephants across the world is a very tricky business) However, I look forward to updating everyone with the whole story when he arrives. Grin

an elephant sightings? - im kicking myself i didnt get him tracked

all the way from america and if he gets lost going up the M5 it will be crazy!

Loyaultemelie · 30/11/2018 13:17

Have you tried Dobbies (I know you said you had been in garden centres but maybe not there?)
We were there with dogs aunt and they had some really unusual bristle animals ie not squirrels etc. I remember giraffes so they might have elephants?

Loyaultemelie · 30/11/2018 13:17

DHs not dogs Blush

Loyaultemelie · 30/11/2018 13:19

Oh never mind phone didn't show the last few posts until after I'd posted.
Just ignore
